Lederhosen anyone?

Chelsie L is looking for a size 5 boy Lederhosen for her son to wear to preschool on Friday. If you have something you think may work, please call or respond. Thanks!

Duck Pond?

Does anyone know of a pond with ducks nearby? I know my baby would love to see some, but I don't really want to drive all the way down town just to see some ducks.

Also, I did end up buying a car cake pan. I'd be happy to lend it out. It makes a pretty easy cute cake.

Book Club Location Change

Dora had some unexpected guest come into town. The location has changed to Monique Frost's house at 7108 Cuchillo in the trails. Spread the word.
Directions: head toward the church on Rainbow, turn left on Treeline, then turn on the 1st left (we don't know the name of this street.) Turn right on Las Nutrias, left on Ladron and then left on Cuchillo. Her house is the 1st on the left.

Hope to see you there.

Rock/Gravel Suppliers

We need to order some gravel for our backyard. I am wondering if anyone has ordered any from suppliers in Abq or Rio Rancho and would be willing to recommend their company name and number???

Thanks!!

Soda Bottles Needed

I'm in need of eight 2-liter soda bottles. Anyone have some lying around the house? I would need to pick them up by Friday evening. Thanks so much!

Book Club Reminder

Just want to remind everyone that book club is this Thursday at 7:30. Dora T will be hosting it at her house. You can look her up if you need directions. We're reading The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. This was such a fun book and I know we'll have some wonderful discussions. Come even if you haven't read the book; everyone needs a girls' night out!

Also a reminder that we'll be discussing Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell on November 19th. We'll delay the start time until 8:00 because cub scout pack meeting has been scheduled for that night. I'll be hosting it at my house. Start reading now!

Hope to see you all there!

H1N1 at School

Our local ES posted this on facebook yesterday. Just wanted to pass it along. It's always a good reminder to re-visit the topic of handwashing techniques with our kids. Nothing to be overly concerned about, but certainly something to be aware of. Most teachers I have talked to are still open to receiving more hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes, so that's something to think about if you want to help. Angela B.

We had our first confired case of H1N1 today. We can assure parents we are doing everything we can to keep classrooms clean. Students have access to hand sanatizer too. Our suggestion to parents is if your kids are sick keep them home. We realize it ...can be an inconvience for you, but think of the other students at school.

If You Are on the Fence About Going to Vote Today...

If you are on the fence about going to vote today because you have your kids and you think you'll have to stand in line forever and keep them from climbing the walls, THINK AGAIN! I just got back from voting at VVHS and it took me less than 10 minutes. Yes, you read that right. Less than 10 minutes! Voting is incredibly important, so make the time today to do it!

Just a note...If you take your child in a stroller, you will need to stop at the office to get a key to the elevator (you just have to trade your car keys for the elevator key). As you walk in the entrance to the high school the office is just to your right.

Apple peeler/corer/slicer

Anyone have one of these Rebecca G. can borrow next week for joy school? Please let either one of us know if you do! Thanks!

Pumpkin Patch Trip

Here's a great activity to do with your kids that Andrea Rogers would like to invite everyone to:

The Galloping Grace Youth Ranch Pumpkin Patch is open now on Eagle Ranch and Paseo. If you haven't picked out your pumpkins yet. Don't do it yet! If we set up a field trip to this pumpkin patch, it's only $5 a kid. They bring the horses down to the pumpkin patch, the kids get to ride for like 5-6 minutes around the corral, they have a whole fun area for kids to play...like a corn maze, kids play in a big barrell of corn kernels..other fun activities etc...and then pick out a pumpkin that would cost you $5-7 anyways.

Our familily likes to carve pumpkins anyways, so instead of just buying them, we get to do all the fun too. We just need to get together a group of 10 kids..that's like 3-4 families, and they will bring the horses down for us. They will bring the horses down for 2 hours, and then the kids can get on as many times as they want during that time. They are really great with the kids too... So basically for $5 you get a pumpkin, horse rides and fun "fall" activities.
I can help organize groups! Let me know if you are interested, e-mail me what days don't work for you in the afternoon, and I'll organize a fun field trip day. rogersareblessed@gmail.com

All the profit goes to this youth horse ranch. My kids have been participating at their ranch and are loving their experience.

Brown Sugar Anyone?

So I was feeling a little ambitious the other day and ended up buying 25 pounds of brown sugar at Costco! It cost 60 cents a pound (I think at Walmart it is usually around $1 a pound). Now I am realizing that it is way more than I can use before it becomes hard as a rock (and more than I really care to store). So... I am wondering if anyone out there would like to "go in" with me on this sugar. A 5 pound bag (at the Costco rate) is $3. It is C&H medium brown. Let me know if you are interested! :)

Say a little prayer!

Love, K&J Wagner

ALREADY FOUND A NEW HOME-"Dogloo" Dog House Needs a New Home!

Our dog passed away back in April and we have no need for this Dogloo dog house. I don't have the exact dimensions, but our dog was a Shepard/Lab mix and he weighed about 90lbs. This thing had plenty of room for him. Years and years ago when we had another dog the two of them would crawl in and cuddle up together. So, you get the picture, this thing is big! It is in great condition and we're giving it away for FREE (They go for close to $100 at places like Petsmart). The dogloo is going to Goodwill on Saturday if we don't get any takers. Call or email me kesler999{at}msn{dot}com if you are interested.
